The order a drying job runs in

Equipment matters less than sequence. IICRC S500 sets out these stages, each of them the contractor's to carry out, and each one sizing the stage that follows it.

  1. Step 1: Stop and remove

    The source is shut off, then free water is pumped and extracted. Every hour water stands, it climbs further into drywall and subfloor, so this stage sets the size of everything after it.

  2. Step 2: Open and map

    Baseboard, wet drywall and soaked insulation come out, and meters read the material behind them. The wet edge is marked where the moisture stops, not where the stain does.

  3. Step 3: Dry to a number

    Air movers and dehumidifiers run as a sealed system, and the same points are read daily. The equipment leaves when the readings reach the dry standard for that material, not on a set day.

  4. Step 4: Close up

    Rebuild starts only after the structure is confirmed dry. Insulation, drywall and finishes go back over an assembly that will not feed anything later.

Drying conditions particular to Wildomar

When a floor is wet in Wildomar, the call routes to an independent local contractor for water damage restoration, across town and out to Sedco Hills. The lots here are cut into decomposed granite, which behaves like rock when it is dry and like sand when wet.

What is behind the walls here

Ask when the houses in Wildomar were built and the answer is 1992 at the median, 47.6 percent of them finished by 1990. With a median of 1992 and under half the stock older, the houses were built on slopes of weathered granite, and that material is deceptive: it holds a cut face and takes a compaction like rock, and it loses both once water gets into it.

The drying weather

Drying here is a August job at one pace and a December job at another, 81.3 degrees against 52.6; the 13.86 inches a year peak in February at 3.07, rain recorded at MURRIETA 3.6 NNE 4.1 miles away and temperatures at ELSINORE 6.9 miles away. February is the wettest month at just over three inches of a fourteen inch year and no month averages a freeze, so the ground is dry and firm for almost the whole year; the few winter storms are the only time it behaves like the loose material it actually is.

Where these losses tend to land

  • Ground that is firm until it is wet, so the behavior changes entirely a few times a year
  • Cut slopes and compacted pads that lose strength when saturated, so movement arrives with the rain
  • Material that washes rather than holds, so concentrated flow carries it away from under paving and footings

Frequently asked questions

What is decomposed granite?

Granite that has weathered in place into a coarse sandy material. It holds a cut face, compacts hard and carries load perfectly well while it is dry, which is most of the year here, and it loses a great deal of that as soon as water gets into it.

How does a supply leak change ground like this?

Because a leak changes the ground rather than just wetting it. Water from a failed line under or beside the building saturates material that was behaving like rock, and it starts behaving like sand, so movement and washout follow the water rather than accompanying it.

Is the ground worth checking after the repair?

It is, and it is often skipped. Ground that has been saturated and has moved does not go back to where it was when it dries, so the paving, the slab edge and anything bearing on it are looked at once the source is fixed rather than assumed intact.
